MacBooks and MacBook Pros updated today: The bumps are minor, but getting the best tech for the same price is always good, right?

Minor bumps? 200GB drive rather than 120GB, Penryn processor, multi-touch trackpad, twice the video memory, all for the same price. Wait.

I bought one like this to familiarize myself with Apple laptops. It is not a bad idea to start with one like this to see if you want to eventually buy a newer and much more expensive one.

I'm really not sure how to answer your question. My brother in law is a huge computer geek and he told me that my macbook is the newer version. I was trying to use his charger, from his older macbook air, but it did not work. The charger was different. He always has the newest electronics so I felt pretty cool.

Reading the Apple Support forums, people are getting the black MacBooks now from Amazon even when they are quoted a July shipping date. Also, in the MB 1.83 Ghz Amazon forum, someone mentioned that he got his shipped and delivered earlier this month even when quoted a late shipping date.So I think that Amazon is just being conservative as Apple is notorious for not having enough supply for their products. I think Amazon is just trying to cover their butts in case Apple can't meet demand and doesn't allocate enough shipments to Amazon.

NO... not going to happen. Macbook Air is the focus of the new releases. MBP updates will be 2 months to 4 months away

bought mine Saturday, came with old leopard (but i bought snow leopard)best macbook pro ever. snow leopard really makes it come alive (with speed)my adobe and pro apps load up with the greatest of ease (it's scary how fast they run now), heck, even firefox doesn't slow down the system anymore! (though it does take it's time)and now you can add more than 10 items to you dock (when dragging a folder down), soo awesome!

you get what you pay for. I bought this for my wife to replace an HP Pavilion that lost the main board. it's not fancy by today's standards but it works well. main issues are all cosmetic. if you need more than it is after you've go it in hand and are capable the upgrades aren't tough. I swapped in a larger (and newer) hard drive, sourced a 2GB memory kit off ebay (new, $25 and free shipping) and upgraded the OS up to the latest it'd take (mountain lion if I remember right). Me and the wife are both happy with the end result and she finally gets to experience a Mac for herself. if you're worried about warranty or newness of product I'd suggest hitting the local walmart for a $200 netbook. these are after all used but you're NOT going to touch any new Apple laptop for this price. I hope this helps you. :)

Yes. I haven't encountered any issues. These are top notch disc's. I've used them in several PC's including my older MacPro and G5 desktops. I don't have a MacBook. I haven't had any bad disc's as of yet. I still have over half of the 200 I purchased... but I think I would've had at least one go by now if the QC was lousy. Remember that the best name disc's can have bad runs, and vis versa. IMO we are at the mercy of luck in many cases. All you can do is find a "currently" high rated product, and get it fast before they rest on their laurels! I hope I didn't get too off subject for you here? But I like these discs! Yes.

I think they do. The Apple Store listing of this product also lists the Macbook.

Hi, David, We have six Macintosh laptops in our household, ranging from 2 500 MHz ice ibooks bought back in 2000 to a new Macbook and a new Macbook pro. All of them are still working really well, given their ages and what we've put them through. There have been some flaws, yes, but no more flaws than friends who have PC laptops have endured (and they're in worse shape than we are sometimes). We have gotten two lemons; my partner's Ti Powerbook had a manufacturing flaw that showed up causing the motherboard to short circuit, and my first Macbook had a literally warped case, which meant it cracked. However, those can happen to anyone and it was just bad luck as far as I'm concerned -- he bought his through the apple online store, I got mine in person at the apple store. Buy Applecare. ALWAYS. And never go to the Genius bar if you can avoid it -- it's named ironically. Applecare and the applecare 800 number are your best bet. The bigger test I think is the powerbooks and ibooks that are now 4 and 8 years old, respectively. They're all going strong. One's our file server, one's a music server for the house, one runs a linux test environment, and one's in my kitchen, serving as my recipe library and media etc center. They all get a lot of work, and other than all being restarted every sunday night at 8, they pretty much run continually. Of course they're out of battery, but that's to be expected. Batteries don't last forever. Good luck, and I hope this helped!

I have this macbook since 2008 and I'm still using it. It works just fine, the only thing that broke was the power adapter, but I bought a new one and it is ok.

Btw. Mine is a pro, not a plain MacBook. I don't know if that makes a difference

I purchased this model, & it is the latest model of 15" MBP, at least as of today :-). Apple occasionally releases new models in June.

I'm sure the issue is only affecting those two, if I heard correctly those are current bugs that are being worked on during the beta updates Mac gives. Even if it wasn't caused by an update, those are apple related products and should not affect the Antivirus program . Either way the deal is nice and you may as well buy it now.
